Talk:Point Break (2015)

Just like Red Dawn (2012), another terrible remake of a Patrick Swayze film. --Ben41 (talk) 13:42, 27 May 2015 (EDT)

I have to give them credit, however, for finding an actor just as bad as Keanu Reeves to play Johnny Utah. It's amazing. --Funkychinaman (talk) 13:55, 27 May 2015 (EDT)

Oh yeah, it's gonna be all kinds of terrible. --RedRobinAlpha (talk) 19:42, 27 May 2015 (GMT)

So they went from a bunch of surfer dudes who rob banks in suit jackets and President masks to a bunch of BASE jumpers dressed like a bunch of airsoft players and no Keanu? This is really gonna suck --PaperCake 16:12, 27 May 2015 (EST)

Adding insult to injury, the original film had a decent selection of guns for the time (it was one of the first movies to feature both the Freedom Arms Model 83 and the SIG-Sauer P226). Whereas this movie doesn't look like it will have anything that hasn't already been in every action film ever made. -MT2008 (talk) 18:37, 28 May 2015 (EDT)

Agreed, and no Gary Busey, I mean I understand why there is no Swayze, but leaving out Crazy Gary seems like a reason alone to give this a miss. Although I am glad to see them using the Gen 4 Glock 17, don't see too much of them, it's almost always a Gen 3, even considering the Gen 4 has been out for 5 years now. --RedRobinAlpha (talk) 23:58, 28 May 2015 (GMT)

Sorry to disappoint you, but I don't think that's a Gen 4; whoever made the page put the wrong pic. The weapon lacks the Gen 4 guide rod end, so I think it's another Gen 3. -MT2008 (talk) 19:06, 28 May 2015 (EDT)

Security personnel use an MP7 during the mountain chase scene, which not surprisingly is quite ineffective against windshields, I mean car doors often stop 7.62 and you can hit a person with 9mm 5 meters under water in movie lala land. The original had a decent premise they robbed banks and disappeared before cops arrived, this has bunch of x-games rejects going up against armed security on dirt bikes and old 4x4's --Iceman (talk) 17:04, 10 March 2016 (EST)

(somewhat) New trailer

If anyone cares--AnActualAK47 (talk) 19:49, 3 December 2015 (EST)

Shotgun

Please help confirm ID of shotgun? --Ben41 (talk) 13:17, 11 January 2017 (EST)

Definitely not a Mossberg. I think that's actually a Franchi PA8, except with full/standard grip and stock. StanTheMan (talk) 13:50, 11 January 2017 (EST)

Franchi PA7 is a version with full stock. Greg-Z (talk) 13:57, 11 January 2017 (EST)

Ah yes, very good. PA7, then, and I'd say that's a definite ID as particular details match perfectly between the two. StanTheMan (talk) 14:04, 11 January 2017 (EST)
